I got nominated by lovely Sara Lily from Sara Lily Photography (such a sweet retro gal! I've found her blog recently and have been a follower ever since) for Liebster Award. I was delighted! Not only is it a compliment to my blog, but it’s also a lovely way to let my readers know a bit more about me and also to reach out to the other bloggers and help us to stay connected.It also looked like a neat addition to my Lovely Blogs series so I decided to give it a go.

The Rules
1) Acknowledge the blog who nominated you
2) Answer the 11 questions given to you from the blogger
3) Nominate 11 blogs you think are deserving of the award (less than 200 followers)
4) Let the bloggers know that you have nominated them
5) Give 11 questions for them to answer
6) Display the award photo in your post

I guess I went through some changes over the last three years and those changes were so important I wanted to share their infuence over me. Some of those changes pertained to fashion and clothing and that's why I chose this topic to write about.

Uhh... I'm not familiar with this, sorry! I guess we don't do enough karaoke in Poland, which is too bad because I just love singing. My fave song though? There are too many. When we do actually gather with my friends to sing, I like to start with "Dream a Little Dream of Me" and go forth with some Ella Fitzgerald or Nancy Sinatra classics. I'm also said to be doing a Jim Morrison impersonation quite hilariously.

5. If you could pick any occupation to start on Monday (different from what you do now), what would you pick?

That's actually right on time because I'm in the process of changing my occupations... but it's really hush-hush right now so I can't give the true answer. It's a secret. But you will know soon enough!

Oh, just two places: backpacking through Iceland and backpacking through my beloved Beskids (mountains to the south of Poland). And while it might sound selfish, I'd love to go alone. I just love spending time in nature on my own.

Back in the early 2000s I was mostly listening to heavy/thrash/death/black metal buuut that's still popular culture, right? So my favorite boysband would have to be Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Burzum and Opeth. And Mercyful Fate and Summoning. And other such badasses. Yup.

Oh, those I have a-plenty. I'm kinda quote hoarder (I'm pretty sure not one of my friends knows this about me, it's a little embarassing to me). But the one that I keep coming back to the most is:

“Coming home from very lonely places, all of us go a little mad: whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen.”― John le Carré

10. Jakie masz plany na piątkowy wieczór?W tym tygodniu? Pewnie trochę poszyję.11. Are you an introvert or extrovert?
I'm not sure I actually believe this classification to be true to everyone. I mean, sure, there are 100% introverts and 100% extroverts and I think I may have known about one of each along the line. But the rest of us is somewhere in between, I guess. I, for example, need a lot of people around me and I soak in their comforting presence but after a while I need my solitude to regain my composure. What does that make me?
